 Why? That should be 230!

Because you're using $item_amount_in_store and $update_item_amount_in_store as 
if PHP should know you mean the same thing.

Hi,
Shouldn't it be:

$item_amount_in_store = 223;
$update_amount = 7;
$item_amount_in_store += $update_amount;
$update_amoint_in_store is now 227;

The 3rd line seems wrong as you didn't use the same variable.

Re: [PHP] Is it possible to click download button,and run 2 tasks downloading a file and show number of downloads(ajax)simultaneously?

2012-10-15 Thread Negin Nickparsa
Thanks Tedd,

ajax works fine now,when submiting a button it will show the number and it
doesn't have any problem


$(function() {

 $(.button).click(function(){
 var id=$(this).attr('id');
 var dataString = 'id='+ id ;
$.ajax({
   type: POST,
   url: download_number.php,
   data: dataString,
   cache: false,
   success: function(html)
   {
  $(#div_+id).html(html);
  }  });
}

button:

input type = button value=Download class=button id=?php echo $id;
? 

div:

div id=div_?php echo $id; ? ?php echo $downloadcount;?/div



by the way* I totally will refuse this approach* because,although the ajax
is working,but I can't do anything for click to download the related file
because when I go to my php page I can't redirect it to a page for download
and besides echo the output to be written in div element,so that,the best
solution is just redirect to a page and download the file in first place.
after submiting write a $_POST['submit'] and just store the download
count,update the table and if user refreshed the page,can see the number of
downloads,*as sure there isn't anything better than this.*

Marco suggested me iframe,reloading it,like a manual ajax but I think it
has much of troubles.

by the way thanks for all helps.

Yes, it is possible.

The following is an example of a server-side php script refreshing a Web page 
via a javascript client-side action:

http://php1.net/a/zipcode-states/

The action is triggered by simply using the selection control, which in turn 
activates an onchange javascript routine that causes a slave php script to run 
retrieving data from a database returning the data thereby causing an ajax 
script to update the selection control.

All the code (html, javascript) is there except for the php script, which 
should be trivial to write.

 you may find it weird, actually very weird, but is the following possible

 load up a post or page into the admin panel and place something like

 echo a href='{$current_page_url_here}?var1=val1'click me/a;

 if ( $_GET['var1']=='val1' )

 so when the visitor, clicks on the click me, same page reloads but
 this time, the title reads val1, and that's what search engines see
 too.
 and if it is also possible to change, the_title() to be equal to val1,
 that's even better.

 But, is such a thing technically possible? Or is it too late at that
 time to make those changes?
 Could ob_start in any shape or form be deployed here to achieve this goal?

This is not a WYSIWYG editor question; WYSIWYG editors are things
like KompoZer, Dreamweaver, FrontPage, and even web-based things like
TinyMCE, et al.

That aside, try this very basic example (and expounded) and see if
it's what you're trying to achieve:

?php
echo 'title';

if (isset($_GET['title'])) {
echo $_GET['title'];
} else {
echo 'The title has not been set!';
}

echo '/title'.PHP_EOL;

echo 'a 
href=http://'.$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'].'?title=Enter+your+title+hereChange
Title/a'.PHP_EOL;

?

I quite like it. It probably does way so much more than I need or want
and I think I can do everything that I can on Apache.

IIS7 is certainly a massive leap ahead of the PWS I first tried to use.

IIS+FastCGI+PHP. Add the Rewrite plugin and the PHP extensions
WinCache and SQLSvr (PDO if you want it) and you have a well defined
simple setup.

Obviously, getting to grips with the administration UI is a bit
different to just editing a plain text config file, but IIS does use
an XML file for its config, so, once you know the xsd, you can do that
by hand also. Full docs on the xsd are available online, so really,
I'd guess in terms of ability, IIS and Apache are on-par.

Richard.

If you want to pass a variable to another script, I know of four

1. Use POST;
2. Use GET;
3. Write the variable to a database;

 If you want to pass a variable to another script, I know of four
 choices, namely:

 1. Use POST;
 2. Use GET;
 3. Write the variable to a database;
 4. Include the next script.

Not possible to send POST in header if your aim is to hide vars from users.

Could think about dynamically send POST using Javascript. form.send();

This requires some JS knowledge about how to exchange data between PHP and

Well, since the OP can't POST using header, then maybe alternatives to
help them out?

If you want to use sessions or are already using them (i.e.
session_start() on each of the pages), you can just use session vars:

session_start();
$_SESSION['var'] = 3;
header(Location: http://domain/index.php;);
exit;

Then in the next page you have the var:

session_start();
$var = $_SESSION['var'];

 No, it is not possible.  You will need to look into cURL or something else.

 But it cannot be done via the header() function.

I second that you need to use curl:

$header = array(
MIME-Version=1.0,
Content-type=text/html; charset=utf-8
);
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $this-elqPosturl);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, $this-curlOptTimeOut);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPPROXYTUNNEL, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PROXY, $this-proxyServer);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PROXYPORT, $this-proxyPort);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $inputArray);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, 'MSIE');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $header);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 1);

$data = curl_exec($ch);

Re: [PHP] Is it possible to restart Windows Apache (service) on a PHP script?

2007-10-22 Thread Peter Ford
You could try using exec to set up an AT job with a short delay which will
then run 'net apache restart' - I'm not a total windows guru so I can't give you
the exact recipe...

Something like exec('AT 12:00 net apache restart');

Check the documentation on the AT command...

One possible extra advantage is that you could cancel the 'AT' job during the
delay period if you clicked restart by accident :)

RE: [PHP] Is it possible to restart Windows Apache (service) on a PHP script?

2007-10-22 Thread Daevid Vincent
What we do is setup 'sudo' to run certain commands (or a shell/ruby script
for example), then have PHP/Apache exec() the script via sudo (or use a DBUS
call to a 'root' enabled ruby daemon), which then restarts apache or
whatever we want.

Be VERY careful with the way you do this or you can give crackers all kinds
of ways to cause you pain.


For example:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc# cat /etc/sudoers
Cmnd_Alias CHMOD = /bin/chmod
Cmnd_Alias REBOOT = /sbin/reboot, /sbin/shutdown

rootALL=(ALL) ALL
www-dataALL=NOPASSWD: /bin/date, /sbin/hwclock,
REBOOT,  /usr/bin/dpkg, /usr/sbin/chpasswd,
/usr/bin/passwd, /usr/sbin/srvwatch,
/usr/sbin/srvtalk

Then in the PHP web page:

exec(/usr/bin/sudo /sbin/reboot);

RE: [PHP] Is it possible to stop an image from being cached?

2007-07-26 Thread Chris Aitken
 Solution 1:
 Send a header() that avoids caching (can't remember it exactly)
 Solution 2:
 Call the image like this:
 img src=image.jpg?arandomstringhereeachtime
 Or if you were creating it with a php script:
 img src=image.php?img=image.jpgarandomstringhereeachtime

My preferred way of doing it, and making sure its reloaded each time is to
do it this way... the U variable pretty much guarantees a random string each
time its loaded.

image.jpg?.date(U).

Solution 1:
Send a header() that avoids caching (can't remember it exactly)


You can try:

header('Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate, 
Post-Check=0, Pre-Check=0');

Well, this is only one specific image that constantly changes, the rest of 
the page is handled regularly.

From what you've said if I go with this

header(Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate); // HTTP/1.1
header(Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT); // Date in the past

That will effect only the one specific image I use this on when generating 
it right?

The image itself.

Also note, that if you use my solution 2, you still might get
problems, as the page that is calling might be cached, and in the
cached page, it refers to the image with the same unique code, and it
will use the cached image again.

Also, if you use solution 2, the image will still stay forever in the
temp folder of the browser(unless the user is cleaning it). If you use
solution 1, the browser will keep it only for this page, and will
remove it afterwards.

But wouldn't that make every image on the page be uncached and reloaded each

only 1 or 2 images need to be forced.

Yes, that depends on which way it is used, I wouldn't recommend
loading images from the database that don't get changed...
And you can of course also use an
if-statement/switch-statement/in_array function in your image.php
script, like this:

$img = $_GET['img'];
if($img == test_a.jpg || $img == test_b.jpg) {
header(Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate); // HTTP/1.1
header(Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT); // Date in the past
}

OR:

$img = $_GET['img'];
switch($img) {
case test_a.jpg:
case test_b.jpg:
header(Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate); // HTTP/1.1
header(Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT); // Date in the past
}

OR:

$img = $_GET['img'];
$noncached_images = array(test_a.jpg,test_b.jpg);
if(in_array($img,$noncached_images)) {
header(Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate); // HTTP/1.1
header(Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT); // Date in the past

Not forever.

Just until something else being downloaded shoves it out due to the
folder size restriction.

The browser might even be smart and keep oft-used resources in the
cache in favor of others rather than be strictly FIFO.

So a random URL makes browsers that were dumb enough to cache
something they shouldn't have cached (if you sent no cache headers)
clog up their cache with the un-re-usable files that it shouldn't
have saved anyway.

Oooh, hurt me. :-)

You can try to use all the zillion header calls people will send you.

Somewhere out there is a really stupid browser that will insist on
caching it.

src=somebody.jpg??php echo uniqid()? will make it very difficult
for any halfway-decent browser to cache.

However, that can lead to some issues when the URL of the image is
embedded elsewhere, as some folks will strip off the GET arg on the
assumption that it's invalid for a JPEG.

Embedding the random bit so that it LOOKS like a directory, but isn't,
will avoid that problem.

I blogged about how to do this kind of thing (in another context) over
here:
http://richardlynch.blogspot.com/2006/06/php-downloads-content-disposition.html

There are shorter / better explanations out there, but I don't know
where without Googling, and you know how to Google, right?

 We are working on a PHP project that implements mass mailing to a large

 purpose and if there are any problems with PHP in this case.

No problems that I can think of as long as you use a custom php.ini file
to avoid such things as safe_mode, max_execution_time, and various other
nasties that you might bump into if you run it on various servers.

 I was said that using Perl script is more suitable for such task since PHP
 scripts have problems with sending large amount of mail.

Bah humbug. PHP CLI works just fine, and, it is quite easy to do both
ncurses and text positioning/coloring for both Windows and Linux, and it
is a lot easier to run it either from the web or shell. It's not the PHP
script that has the problem, in reality, it's just an issue of making
sure that you're sending the mails in batches, which you can do if you
make sure that there's no maximum execution time set for the PHP script.

 Is that true or not? Any success/failure stories?

It is false. And, I am sure that someone can dig up a success story,
but, I know for a fact that I'd rather use PHP for sending large amounts
of email, especially if there's to be MIME parts and or HTML included in
it. There are already several well-coded PEAR packages that do this for
you out of the box.

RE: [PHP] PHP CLI - possible for mass mailing?

 Subject: [PHP] PHP CLI - possible for mass mailing?
 
 
 Hello List,
 
  
 
 We are working on a PHP project that implements mass mailing 
 to a large
 number of its subscribers (expected 100,000-200,000 users; 
 not spam mailing
 BTW). So I am wondering if it is possible to use PHP CLI 
 binary for this
 purpose and if there are any problems with PHP in this case.
 
  
 
 I was said that using Perl script is more suitable for such 
 task since PHP
 scripts have problems with sending large amount of mail.
 
 Is that true or not? Any success/failure stories?

While I don't handle nearly that volume, I routenely use the CLI binary to
mail a weekly newsletter to ~200 subscribers.  I have never had any problem
with it.

do you have log files? the page you linked to was generated by  
webalizer. is there a reason you can't use that (or Awstats, or  
something similar)? you probably don't need to reinvent the wheel  
here... though you may need to tweak your webserver to put more  
information in the log files so you can see all the stats you desire.

When deppending on authentication, never link the files directly.

You can create a download.php file that gets an ID through the URL,
checks if the user is authenticated and then read the file.

You will need these functions:

http://pt.php.net/file_get_contents
http://pt.php.net/header

Header() is to send the mime type, and file_get_contents is to read the
file's contents (DOH).

If you run into trouble, you can (in the order given ;):

1) Read the user's comments on both functions. They're pretty helpful
sometimes
2) Mail the ML :)

Route the email link through a script that checks for availability based 
on a user name, or email address; have the link as such:


http://www.somesite.org/download.php?file=filenameuser=login name

When this user clicks this email, it will direct them to download.php, 
where you could setup a call to a database. If this is the first time 
this user has accessed this file, set a flag in the database that 
this link is no longer valid, and redirect the user's browser to the 
file (check out the header function). The link in the email will only 
be valid once (or as many times as you allow). You could even tie this 
in with a login/password form.

Indeed it is. Why don't you have the httpd.conf then the virtual domains 
in another file (which is included into the httpd.conf). You can then 
use a cron to copy this (the vir doms) to another file (say the dir 
above webroot) and chown it to www:www for use with apache. PHP can then 
read this parse the ServerNames without having it read the root dirs or 
giving it special access rights.

Re: [PHP] Is it possible to save a file with UTF-8 encoding and noBOMusing PHP?

2005-05-03 Thread Jon M.
(Rasmus wrote:) If you fwrite UTF-8 data to the file, then it is a UTF-8 
file.

Thanks Rasmus! Honestly, that is REALLY helpful!

I was just coming back here to post that I had found that very same answer. 
But I am glad to hear it confirmed by the experts.

Bottom line: I was just being silly/ignorant.

I went and downloaded a simple HEX editor and compared the actual binary 
output of several files that I had created using both PHP, and my favorite 
text editor (emeditor from emeditor.com). I then realized what probably 
everyone else here already knew: that (most of the time) the actual binary 
output from Windows 1252 and ISO-8859-1 and UTF-8 without the byte 
order mark -are completely identical!

I had the false impression that when a file was saved in UTF-8, that there 
was an actual binary marker that specified this (e.g. binary marker = 
This file is saved in UTF-8!) -there simply is no such thing. The only 
thing that would set UTF-8 apart -binarilly speaking- is the BOM, and I 
had stripped that out, making the file exactly the same as plain old ANSI 
(since I didn't have any characters that required UTF-8, like from other 
languages etc.).

My text editor displays the current character encoding in the status bar, 
but since there was no way for it to tell whether it was saved with Windows 
1252 or UTF-8, it just displayed that the file was encoded windows 
default - ISO-8859-1. This is where I got confused.

It turned out that my PHP script has been faithfully saving the file in 
UTF-8 the whole time, and everything was fine. I was just not educated 
enough about what actually changed when you save a file in UTF-8 but didn't 
have any characters that differed from ANSI (which in my case, the change 
was nothing, since ALL of the characters in my test document where 
interchangeable with ANSI).

Well, this has been a learning experience! I hope that this post will help 
some poor ignoramus like myself, sometime in the future! :) And hopefully I 
am right about what I said above, and not flaunting my ignorance once 
again -lol

Thanks again, to everyone who helped me! You guys really got me on the right 
track. Not the least of which was simply causing me to think about what I 
was asking more deeply.

Thanks also, Richard! You were right on.

Just a note:

I just visited the W3C validation service again, and it seems they have 
recently updated it. It no longer complains if it finds a BOM in your 
document binary. So it would appear that it's no longer an issue with enough 
XML parsers to be relevant anymore. Still, it is nice to have a

 We are contending that either you are *not* writing UTF-8 data, but are

 fwrite just takes your data and dumps it on the hard drive.

 You are mis-informed.

 How do you actually control the way the binary file itself is written, 
 and
 not just the text that is saved in the file?

 If you are using Windows, then *WINDOWS* is, perhaps, guessing on the
 binary format based on the file 'extension' (.txt) and on the contents.

 First, try renaming the file to, err, whatever Windows thinks UTF-8 file
 extensions should be... .utf8 ??? Whatever Notepad uses.

 Next, forget what Windows desktop tells you.  It's bull.

 When you get the data back out of the file, what format is it?

 PS You may be confusing Windows by writing UTF-8 without the BOM, and so
 Windows then thinksit's iso-8859-1, because it's no longer a valid UTF-8
 file!  You can make Windows happy; or you can make W3c happy.  Not both.

Generally, no.  You would need some black magic that probed the guts of 
your web server for this information.  And by black magic I mean some 
low-level C code.

A bit of grey magic I wrote almost exactly 9 years ago now! (May 1, 
1996) in the form of Apache's mod_info module might help you out a 
little bit.  If you define all your vhosts in your httpd.conf file and 
not in included files, then you can enable mod_info in your Apache 
config, and restrict access to the information to localhost with 
something like:

  Location /server-info
SetHandler server-info
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
Allow from 127.0.0.1
  /Location
Then your PHP code would hit your server's local /server-info link and 
parse it with something along the lines of:

  $info = file_get_contents('http://localhost/server-info?http_core.c');
  preg_match_all('/.*servername .*?(\S+?).*/i',$info,$reg);
  $vhosts = $reg[1];
You may need to doublecheck that regex.  I didn't actually test it.

2. How to have fwrite write the file without the BOM. (to make it more

 BTW, note to PHP developers: If fwrite had a encoding parameter, e.g. 
 UTF-8, that would be REALLY handy.

 Strings in PHP are binary-safe and character-encoding neutral.  fwrite 
 doesn't have a clue what it is writing, it just writes what is in memory.

 I'd question why you would want to strip the BOM.  Any modern system deals 
 with the byte-order-mark correctly.  But you can simply strip it manually 
 if it is present in the first 2 bytes before your fwrite if you really 
 need to get rid of it.

 1. First I want to know how to make the actual binary file that is written,
 to be encoded as UTF-8. This is my PRIMARY question.
I think this part is the key. If the string originated from your text editor, 
then your text editor needs to be in UTF-8 mode. If you are importing the 
data from a file or database then you need to be sure that the data is UTF-8  
encoded. If you know that the encoding is instead ISO-8859-1 then you can 
convert it to UTF-8 with the php function utf_encode. fwrite will then write 
out the bytes that you presented to it. I guess the same applies in reverse 
when you read the file back in to the application that will view the text.

I didn't try anything.

I wouldn't know a UTF-8 it it walked up and bit me on the ass.  :-)

But I *do* know that PHP's fwrite is much too low-level to be doing
encoding types and whatnot.

It just writes whatever you tell it.

If you think it's always saving in windows default encoding, perhaps your
test is not distinguishing between having no BOM (whatever that is) and
having the Windows BOM or whatever makes you think it's Windows format.

As far as getting rid of the BOM, assuming you've got your UTF-8 string
thingie, and you know where the BOM occurs, you'd just use
http://php.net/substr on it, I reckon...

 Does PHP have any ability to create a text file saved in UTF-8 encoding???

Maybe I'm just being dumb, but I think if you UTF-8 encode your data, and

Dunno about the Byte-Order-Mark part, but I guess you could strip it out
of the UTF-8 encoded data before writing, if you wanted to.

That was the first thing I tried, and it doesn't seem to work (it always 
saves in windows default encoding). Unless I missing something about what 
you can do with fwrite. Did you actually test that before you replied, and 
found that it would? If so, how? The Byte Order Mark is a part of the binary 
file that is written, how would one go about stripping it out??

BTW, note to PHP developers: If fwrite had a encoding parameter, e.g. 
UTF-8, that would be REALLY handy.

Strings in PHP are binary-safe and character-encoding neutral.  fwrite 
doesn't have a clue what it is writing, it just writes what is in memory.

I'd question why you would want to strip the BOM.  Any modern system 
deals with the byte-order-mark correctly.  But you can simply strip it 
manually if it is present in the first 2 bytes before your fwrite if you 
really need to get rid of it.

Not truly, but Google for PHP Compiler and you should find some

If you control both pages - i.e. you have access to the applications - you may 
use javascript to send signals from the second frame to the first. But have 
in mind that if the domain of both applications is not equal you'll have to

Shor answer no:
long answer: you can use an interface to describe the behaviour of class 
B and implement that interface in class C so that class C can be made to 
behave like class B does.

Having said all that if you want class B to behave like class C there is 
a problem in the design and any time spent now in rectifying the issue 
(possibly by mering the two classes) will definitely save you countless 
hours of hair pulling in the future.

Now, since the file is already there on the local hard disk
of the client, the file need not be downloaded through the
PPP link, instead be played from the local disk - which makes
faster access !
Since your webserver does not know what files exist in the client's hard 
disk this is impossible for a php script to do. What you are looking for 
is probably some kind of plug in for your browser.

iirc, by default mysql uses the socket if you connect via

Although a mysql list probably would be more appropriate for this

I have built a small script that opens a file, reads from it, and
returns some results. Instead of changing the fopen line each time I
would just like to pass the name of the file to be tested.
I tried as a URL

/usr/local/bin/php mySmallScript.php?n=foo.php

Didn't work. Wait...

Heck.

Works fine if you do not mind the headers. $argv and $argc are the
answers. 

/usr/local/bin/php mySmallScript.php foo.php

foo.php will be in $argv[1] 

Use -q if you don't want the headers:

/usr/local/bin/php -q mySmallScript.php foo.php
